  5. Salgira Mubarak to the Ismaili community of Gilgit Baltistan. This visit of Moulana Hazir Imam to the north part of Pakistan has a significant impact on the quality of life of the people of the region. Moulana Hazir Imam had said on his visit that “I have seen the worst poverty in this part of the world” and there from most of the developmental activities started. Though the education system was in place before but that was also expended along with other developmental programmes.
    So the people of Gilgit-Baltistan must realize the importance of this day and humbly thank MHI for his contributions to the people of the area.

  9. يا رب آن آهوى مشكين به ختن باز رسان

    وان سهى سرو خرامان به چمن باز رسان

    دل آزرده ما را به نسيمى بنواز

    يعنى آن جان ز تن رفته به تن باز رسان

    ماه و خورشيد به منزل چو به امر تو رسند

    يار مهروى مرا نيز به من باز رسان

    ديده‏ها در طلب لعل يمانى خون شد

    يارب آن كوكب رخشان به يمن بازرسان

    برو اى طاير ميمون همايون آثار

    پيش عنقا سخن زاغ و زغن باز رسان

    سخن اين است كه ما بى‏تو نخواهيم حيات

    بشنو اى پيك خبر گير و سخن باز رسان

    آنكه بودى وطنش ديده حافظ

    يارب به مرادش ز غريبى به وطن بازرسان

  10. SALGIRAH MUBAKAR TO ALL SPRITUAL BROTHERS AND SISTERS OF GILGIT-BALTISTAN.
